Fine wines with layers of distinction
Patina has a boutique range of Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Rose, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz.
The high altitude and volcanic soils enables the vinification of cool climate wines that exemplify finesse, tightness and slow development.
As a Boutique Winemaker Gerald Naef produces wines that are approachable and believes the wines should be released after they have achieved complexity and are a good compliment to food.

Rosé 2008$16 per Bottle, $182 per CaseAlthough this Rosé is dry, the early palate shows sweet ripe red berry fruit leading to an intense mid palate with a crisp long dry, flavour-filled finish. There is very little residual sugar in this wine (three grams per litre) the illusion of sweetness up front is primarily the result of ripe fruit and the blend of grape varieties. |
